Recent Music Videos: Some Faves

Music videos are a great way to waste time, right? Well, here’s a list to help if you have trouble deciding on a destination for your procrastination vacation.

Hot Chip: I Feel Better
This video is amazing, between Hot Chip’s awesomely danceable tune and the goofy boy band/nasty glowing alien/giant floating head. Just watch it.

Real Estate: Suburban Dogs
The opening is what first got me about this video. These young hipsters are totally and completely welcomed at this real estate agency’s holiday party. But there is something really surreal about watching footage of these middle-aged peeps, paired with Real Estate’s psychedelic, summery lo-fi tune. The grainy scenes of Jersey match the lo-fi quality in the guitars. I love this video!

The Morning Benders: Promises
There is so much to like about this video: the thick layering of guitars, the cinematography, the precocious (actually, maybe that’s an understatement) little Bonnie and Clyde and that cat!

Efterklang: I Was Playing Drums
Talk about crafts gone wild! A man awakes to find giant bird people dragging him through a primeval forest. Did I mention that their heads are made of glitter and feathers? Yes!
